I've been looking at this image for 3 days, and I am still having problems discerning the spider. I think I am finally able to see its eyes (2 with a catch light in each, and maybe one more on top with two catchlights, including one orange).

BTW, Larry, did you notice some sort of "color banding" in the background?
When I am looking at the "maximized" verion of the image in Flickr, right in the middle (just left of the cocoon), there are bands of two different levels of brown. This might be an artifact of JPEG compression. Or, it comes from the dark shadows that are "clipped".

(In non-maximized version that banding is much worse, -- it has several steps.)

The caterpillar I photographed a couple days ago seems to have gotten
around to wrapping a cocoon.  However, there seems to be a spider that
thinks it's a pretty nifty MRE.

BTW, someone pointed out that what I thought was a spider in the
previous
photos was probably a mosquito.
